I Just Don't Like This Kind of Living

I just don't like this kind of living

I'm tired of doing all the giving

I give my all and sit and yearn

And get no loving in return

And I just don't like this kind of living

Why do we stay together?

We always fuss and fight

You ain't never known to be wrong

And I ain't never been right

Tell me where you think we're going

'cause I ain't got no way of knowing

When things go wrong, you go your way

You leave me here to pay and pay

And I just don't like this kind of living

I just don't like the things you're doing

Your evil heart will be your ruin

When things start running smooth and free

You haul right off and you pick on me

And I just don't like this way of living

They say the road of love is long

It's rocky, and it's rough

But if this road don't start to get smooth

I've traveled it long enough

Why don't you act a little older

And get that chip up off your shoulder?

I told you once

Now I'll tell you twice

You better start to treat me nice

'cause I just don't like this way of living
